Re: forclosure , bankrupcy , separation?
If you stop paying the mortgage, the bank will sue you for foreclosure. You can contest it and fight the foreclosure by answering the complaint or you can ignore it and give up the house. After the judgment of foreclosure is entered the property will be scheduled for sheriff�s sale.
You may be able to stop all of this from happening by filing for bankruptcy, or by negotiating with the bank.
